A quick study of the 0x5009/0x500A HKEY event on the X61t DSDT revealed the
existence of the EC HTAB register (EC 0x0f, bit 7), and a compare with the
X41t DSDT shows that HKEY.MHKG can be used to verify if the ThinkPad is
tablet-capable (MHKG present), and in tablet mode (bit 3 of MHKG return is
set).
Add an attribute to report this information, "hotkey_tablet_mode". This
attribute has poll()/select() support, and can be used along with EV_SW
SW_TABLET_MODE to hook userspace to tablet events.

Issue EV_SW SW_TABLET_MODE events for HKEY events 0x5009 and 0x500A on the
X41t/X60t/X61t. As usual, we suppress the HKEY events on the netlink
interface to avoid sending duplicate events to userspace.

The video output port control feature is not very useful on many ThinkPads
(especially when a X server is running), and lately userspace is getting
better and better at it, so it makes sense to allow users to stripe out the
thinkpad-acpi video feature from their kernels and save at least 2KB.

The open() and close() hooks for the input device are useful even when

It is safe for these Kconfig entries to use select because
they select ACPI_WMI, which already has its dependencies
satisfied. This makes Kconfig more user friendly, since
the user selects the driver they want and the dependency
is met for them. Otherwise, the user would have to find
and enable ACPI_WMI to make enabling these drivers possible.

work is available)
* Checkpatch fixes
v3:
* Add new EC quirks for Aspire 3100 & 5100, and Extensa 5220
v4:
* Simplified internal handling of WMID and AMW0 devices
* Add autodetection for bluetooth and maximum brightness on AMW0 V2 and
WMID laptops.
v5:
* Add EC quirk for Medion MD 98000
* Add autodetection for AMW0, and mail LED on AMW0 and AMW0 V2.
* Improve error handling
* Fix AMW0 V2 bluetooth and wireless, by using both WMID and AMW0 methods
to ensure that the correct value is always set.
v6:
* Fix 'use before initialisation' bug with quirks.
v7
* Fix bug on AMW0 where acer-wmi would exit if a mail LED was not
detected.
* Add Acer Aspire 9110 mail LED support
* Fix section mismatch warnings

Implement poll()/select() support through sysfs_notify() for some key
attributes which userspace might want to poll() or select() on.
In order to let userspace know poll()/select() support is available for an
attribute, the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interface version is also bumped up.
Further changes that add poll()/select() capabilities to any pre-existing
attributes will also increment the sysfs interface version.

Handle some HKEY events that the firmware uses to report the reason for a
wake up, and to also notify that the system could go back to sleep (if it
woke up just to eject something from the bay, or to undock).
The driver will report the reason of the last wake up in the sysfs
attribute "wakeup_reason": 0 for "none, unknown, or standard ACPI wake up
event", 1 for "bay ejection request" and 2 for "undock request".
The firmware will also report if the operation that triggered the wake up
has been completed, by issuing an HKEY 0x3003 or 0x4003 event. If the
operation fails, no event is sent. When such a hotunplug sucessfull
notification is issued, the driver sets the attribute
"wakeup_hotunplug_complete" to 1.
While the firmware does tell us whether we are waking from a suspend or
hibernation scenario, the Linux way of hibernating makes this information
not reliable, and therefore it is not reported.
The idea is that if any of these attributes are non-zero, userspace might
want to do something at the end of the "wake up from sleep" procedures,
such as offering to send the machine back into sleep as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Use a generic message on hotkey_notify to log unknown and unhandled events,
and cleanup hotkey_notify a little.
Also, document event 0x5010 (brightness changed notification) and do not
log it as an unknown event (even if we do not use it for anything right
now).

Move most subdriver-related stuff imported from the header file closer to
their subdriver code. Also, delete unneeded forward declarations.

Remove the header file. Private header files used by a single .c file are
in bad taste, and I know better now.

The NVRAM polling support for hot keys is reason enough to
bump up the version string. Do it.

Older ThinkPad models do not export some of the hot keys over the
event-based ACPI hot key interface. For these models, one has to poll
the CMOS NVRAM to check the key state at a rate faster than the expected
rate at which the user might repeatedly press the same hot key.
This patch implements this functionality for many of the hotkeys in a
transparent way: hot keys will now Just Work, and the driver knows the
best approach (events or NVRAM polling) to employ, based on the
HKEY.MHKA ACPI method.
Also, the driver can turn off the polling when there are no users for
the hot keys that need such polling.
The NVRAM-based hot keys of the A3x series that have never been
implemented by later models are not supported, to avoid changes in the
keymap of the input devices that could cause headaches in the future.
There is a Kconfig option to avoid compiling the NVRAM polling code, as
it is not very small, and unlikely to be useful on any ThinkPad newer
than a T40, X31 or R52.
This feature is based on a previous effort by Richard Hughes.
